Sleep regression?

Question

Hi all. My LO is 15 1/2 weeks. For the past few days, night time sleep has been a serious struggle. Before she was sleeping 8:30pm until 6am, sometimes even 7:30 am. Now she is waking at 1:30, 2:30, 4:30, 6:30. And she’s HUNGRY even though she is eating a ton during the day! I am struggling. Is this the sleep regression?? We took taking Cara babies courses, the newborn course and 3-4 months and I have been implementing those things (mostly, don’t feed right away for night wakings, make sure wake windows are adequate for age, etc) but it does not seem to be working anymore. Any thoughts or suggestions? Isn’t it kinda early to be the sleep regression? Mama needs sleep!!! TIA

Answer

Same exact thing happening here with my daughter and she’s the same age. Only difference is she’s been doing it for over a week, maybe even 2 weeks now 😩 She’s only had two good nights in between where she only woke up once to eat

Same here! My son turned 15 weeks Wednesday and since Monday his sleep has went to hell! He used to go to bed at 7-7:30, maybe occasionally wake for a binky and sleep till about 6. Now naps are a thing if the past and I’m lucky to get a 4 hour stretch when he first goes to sleep! Then it’s about every 1.5 after that he’s up. He doesn’t want his binky and won’t stop fussing or crying until he is fed! Not sure how I’ll survive 35 days of this! 😂 
The wonder weeks app says he started today but I’m pretty certain he started early!

Same! LO is 16 weeks and we’ve been in the sleep regression for 3 weeks now where he is in bed by 7:30 and wakes up at 1,2, 3:30, 4:30, 5, 5:30 and then 6 is wide awake for the day. He used to sleep 7:30-7 no problem 😫 we also did the taking cara babies courses and it’s not helping. We get to A for SITBACK and he falls back asleep, but then is up 30mins later 😭 and the cycle repeats. My LO is not hungry he just wants to practice rolling and sitting up when he’s supposed to be sleeping. I did a consultation with DreamBaby as well and they said everything we are doing is great and just to add more tummy time during the day to tire him out more. Hoping this turns around because I’m exhausted!!

Same! My girl is 18 1/2 weeks and has been going through it probably since the 15 week mark too. It’s rough. We did the taking cara babies course too but honestly, it’s not working now and we’ve just kind of thrown our hands up.  The taking cara babies steps stopped working and I was frustrated with the extra time it took to do the steps when I could just rock her and put her right back to sleep. I know this is creating horrible habits in the long run but I’m just to tired when she wakes up I want the fastest way for her to go back to sleep lol. I think we’re going to start actual sleep training I’m the next few weeks and transition her to the crib to see if she gets better sleep there.
